Psalms 139

¹O Jehovah, thou hast searched me, and known me.

²Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising;

³Thou searchest out my path and my lying down,

⁴For there is not a word in my tongue,

⁵Thou hast beset me behind and before,

⁶Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;

⁷Whither shall I go from thy Spirit?

⁸If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there:

⁹If I take the wings of the morning,

¹⁰Even there shall thy hand lead me,

¹¹If I say, Surely the darkness shall overwhelm me,

¹²Even the darkness hideth not from thee,

¹³For thou didst form my inward parts:

¹⁴I will give thanks unto thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made:

¹⁵My frame was not hidden from thee,

¹⁶Thine eyes did see mine unformed substance;

¹⁷How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God!

¹⁸If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand:

¹⁹Surely thou wilt slay the wicked, O God:

²⁰For they speak against thee wickedly,

²¹Do not I hate them, O Jehovah, that hate thee?

²²I hate them with perfect hatred:

²³Search me, O God, and know my heart:

²⁴And see if there be any wicked way in me,
